AWS res documentation change

Service: res · 2026-06-22 · Documentation low

File: res/archive/release-minus-1/ug/prerequisites.md

Summary

Minor documentation improvements including: capitalization fixes ('Optional' to 'optional'), grammatical corrections ('will need to' to 'must'), typo fixes ('the an' to 'an'), consistency updates ('Create domain' to 'Create a domain'), and terminology standardization ('limits' removed, 'ARN' capitalization).

Security assessment

Changes are editorial improvements without any security vulnerability fixes, security incident references, or new security guidance. Modifications like changing 'Optional' to 'optional' or fixing 'the an' typos don't impact security posture. The ARN capitalization fix is cosmetic and doesn't alter security functionality.
